7 Years Kennel Tech Experience 🐾
Pet care experience
Hi there. My name is Jo and welcome to my profile! I've owned dogs and cats all my life, and I also have about 5 years of professional experience as a kennel caretaker and dog handler at a boarding/daycare facility, as well as 2 years of hands on experience volunteering at an animal shelter. In 2021 I became self employed and now make my living driving all over the PNW, helping people care for their pets and farms. In addition to just under a year of farmhand experience, I am also familiar with the handling and care of a wide variety of small animals including reptiles, fish, birds, ferrets, bunnies, rats, hedgehogs, chinchillas, you name it. I look forward to meeting you and your beloved pet(s)! I'm currently available 7 days a week for daycare, boarding, house sitting, drop in visits and walks. I'm very willing to make whatever accommodations necessary to make your pet's experience with me a comfortable, pleasant and personable one. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment with a very small unfenced yard, though I do normally live a very active lifestyle and am able to exercise your pet up to 3 times a day, depending on their needs. I have a senior cat in my home, but he mostly keeps to himself, and if requested or if necessary I can easily separate the cat from your pets for the duration of their stay.
Reviews
Jordyn is great! She stopped by and walked our fur baby when my wife and I found ourselves away from the house for too many hours. We received updates and a map of their walk. Very happy!
My 150 lb mastiff mix loves Jo. I was very nervous about having someone else walk him, but she always lets me know how the walk went and he's always excited to see her.
I would just like to preface this with I took a complete chance on Jo. I don’t know anyone in the area and really hoped for the best, and I am so pleased to say that I am blown away. I have two older dogs that I have never left before. They are quite finicky and a They are quite finicky and a little high maintenance. Our current circumstances have caused my husband and I both be away a lot. Jordan went above and beyond to care for them & our home. My dogs were clean, happy, and healthy when I got home. My house was spotless. Plants watered, bathroom cleaned, trash taken out. Every detail was taken care of, including clean water in the dog bowls. It was so nice to be able to just come home and pick up where I left off after being away. I cannot speak any higher of the quality of service that Jordan provided for Baylor, Rookie and our home. Absolutely phenomenal.
Jordyn was great. She asked lots of questions to make sure she understood exactly what our needs were so that she could properly care for our old girl. We will be booking again for sure!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When boarding/daycare or housesitting, I am able to supervise your pet 24/7. As a full time pet care provider I do my very best to get to know your pet and their individual needs by learning about their personality, their health and behavioral traits, as well as their usual daily routine, and then adhering to that as much as possible. As well as just generally being a soothing presence and an engaging companion to any animal in my care. I am confident in my ability to effectively handle all kinds of animals; be it a disabled or senior pet with a list of health issues and meds to administer, fear aggressive or resource guarding pets, pets with extreme separation anxiety, as well as every size/breed of dog and cat that you can think of.

Information Jordyn L. would like to know about your pet
Please inform me beforehand of any special needs, behaviors, aggression, separation anxiety, medical issues, etc. that your pet may have. If you're looking to book daycare or boarding services in my home, please note that I do have a feline of my own, and therefore am not able to accept boarding/daycare for other kitties, or overtly cat aggressive dogs, such as those with a very high prey drive. Please feel free to message me with any questions or concerns!
A typical day
I love hiking, and- if you're comfortable with it- I'd be delighted to take your furry friend on a fun adventure to a trail, the beach, or a park! I am very familiar with many of the local outdoor recreational areas, and your dog's safety and comfort is my #1 priority at all times. I also live just blocks away from Astoria's riverfront boardwalk, which is an excellent spot for a low key walk to check out some smells, see some local wildlife, and maybe walk through the beautiful, stimulating downtown area. If your dog is social, and if you're comfortable with it, I can also take them for a visit to our local fully fenced in dog park in Warrenton. I have extensive experience with supervising large play groups of dogs, and thus far have never had any issues with our local park!
